Ripple (XRP): the bank-centric cryptocurrency

Ripple Inc. is a company founded in the USA in 2012 with the goal of creating a secure, fast payment system with extremely low transaction costs through the use of blockchain technology. RippleNet refers to the network underlying this system, which is based on distributed ledger technology (DLT). It is managed not only by an open-source community but also by a private company, Ripple itself, resulting in a high degree of centralization that sets it apart from the blockchains of other cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin.

This characteristic has nevertheless attracted major traditional banking institutions, to the point that more than 15 major international banks currently use Ripple for cross-border payments, including banking giant Santander.

In 2014, the founders, Jed McCaleb, Arthur Bitto, and David Schwartz, decided to complement this technology with XRP, a true cryptocurrency that serves the Ripple ecosystem as a medium of exchange for IOU credits representing FIAT currencies (Euro, Dollar, Yen). XRP therefore functions for banks as readily available liquidity to be used as a “bridge” in transactions involving real-world currencies.

Although it is now one of the most highly capitalized cryptocurrencies, Ripple and its XRP are heavily criticized by crypto purists, on the one hand because of the centralized management of their blockchain, and on the other because of their philosophy, which is the opposite of the one behind Bitcoin, namely a rejection of the current financial and banking system.

How to mine Ripple

Another major difference from Bitcoin and other altcoins is that XRP tokens cannot be mined, as they were all issued when the cryptocurrency was created, further increasing Ripple’s centralized control over the currency.

In fact, initially, in an effort to increase adoption and value, large amounts of XRP were given away to various users, particularly the Ripple founders themselves, who in turn reinvested them by making further donations to the banking institutions that were the first to adopt their system.
